Abstract

Emotion is an intrinsic part of human nature, and it plays a significant role in how we (as humans) think and behave, which drives us to make decisions and take actions. Emotion can be recognized by processing different types of data. Since the identification of human behavior with just a single form of expression is typically hard and thus it make emotion recognition is a challenging task. Recent approaches have concentrated on a single modality of conversation for emotion recognition. However, purely relying on the single modality (a form of expression) of data may not capture emotion in-depth when multi-party and multimodality are involved in the conversion. To fill this gap, we have used Multimodal EmotionLines Dataset (MELD), a broader and enhanced version of the EmotionLine dataset. MELD dataset is built from Friends, an American television sitcom aired by NBC. In Emotion recognition, we propose to detect and recognize different emotions through text, video, and audio modalities. We extended the emotion analysis based on video modality from MELD dataset with reduced number of extracted pixel features. Our experiment results show that with video modality, we can still maintain an F-score of 59 with comparatively less features and reduced testing time by a factor of 88.89%.
